This ad, while a bit long, would be effective if it get smuch airtime in Murtha’s district. As Ed says:

The most effective ads use the opponent’s own words against him, and Murtha supplied many examples for Russell to use. This ad reminds people of Murtha’s rush to pillory Marines in combat in order to support his own political angle, and how Murtha has remained strangely silent when his allegations were exposed as smears.

Rep. Murtha shares Sen. Obama’s hubris and overconfidence, which could lead to both their defeats this fall.
